RhysP Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 (edited) Any Peterson tuner users find their tuner doesn't accurately read their B string? I've recently bought a Stroboflip & whilst it's great for guitar I'm finding it no better at accurately tuning bass E strings than the ancient quartz tuner I was using before & the B string is WAY out - almost a semitone sharp when the display is stationary. I've tried using different settings & nothing makes any difference. Anybody got any ideas? Edited October 1, 2011 by RhysP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkstrike Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Mine is incredibly accurate even when I tune below B. Are you rolling the volume back when tuning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkstrike Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Can't understand it then, should be great. Haven't got any of the sweetened tunings set on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassbluestew Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I have only just got a new model Peterson Strobostomp Classic and it tunes my low B no bother at all. Infact I have it set to tune a semi ( oooooher ) tone flat and its just dandy. I have the volume up full ( I think ) and its absolutely steady and not jumpy as I feared it might be. It's certainly the best tuner I've used, and I have used one or two over the past 35 years, it is also by far and away the most expensive at £140. In fact as I was saying earlier to my wife, I have experienced a bit of an anti climax, as I often do when buying quality gear. It just works, no bother at all, no hassle. Bugger.
